Ah choo!

Lesson learned: The longer you don't post, the harder it is to get going again. There's just so much to tell! So for those of you who are still out there - thanks for checking in! I'll try to do better :)

In the past couple weeks, we've had a lot of firsts, here are just a few!

New foods!
Applesauce **yum**
Bananas - still not too sure, good in oatmeal!
Brocolli - suprisingly yum!
Avocado *gag*
Pears **yum**

Commando crawling - Alyce is becoming quite adept at crawling...backwards :) She's such a good wiggler though, we're sure she's so close to crawling! She worked her way backwards behind this couch cushion, then let out her "help me" shriek. Not before I snap a picture!! :)

2nd tooth! Came in about 8 days after the first. The second was definitely a little harder coming in, tougher on all of us. Mom thinks there is another one coming, although no sightings yet.

Alyce has had her first case of the sniffles, and maybe a slight cold for about a week now. Doesn't seem to bother her, although we've had to use that awful nose sucker-outer for the first time. Not a big hit with Alyce, her dad is much better at it than mom.

Grandma B came for a visit!

Her favorite toys right now are a variety of kitchen utensils and bowls. She can play with them for long stretches at a time. She's also becoming more interested in books, but still loves to chew on them best of all. Well, honestly, she chews on everything.

Alyce is also quite taken with herself in the mirror, and loves pictures of other babies in her books. She greets them like old friends :)

Speaking of old friends, we are off to baby school this morning. Hope you have a wonderful day!
